00:00So let's start with your number one pick that I see here, which is the eight horse honor. Marie, tell me a little bit about the gate.
00:09Yeah, I'm somebody who always looks to look for a little bit of value in this race. A horse that might be flying under the radar going to be the right price. And I think the number eight honor Marie fits that bill.
00:19He's a horse that I was interested in going into the Kentucky Derby was actually my second pick in that race. And I just don't think we got to find out how good he is in that race, because his trip was just a nightmare.
00:29It was like somebody released a lever on a pinball machine at the start where he was getting bounced around between horses at the beginning of that race. He's a horse that likes to come from the back of the pack anyway, but you don't want to take as many bumps as he did coming out of the starting gate.
00:41It really threw him off. He could never get into a comfortable rhythm that day, did make a mild late run, but now he's had some time off since then. He's one of the horses who skipped the Preakness coming into this race as a fresh horse, reportedly training well for this at Churchill.
00:55So I think he's going to run a lot better in this race. Is he good enough to upset some of the horses that beat him last time? Don't know, but I think the price is going to be right to find out.
